2 am
table cold
where my arms aren't.
Quiet toaster
Morning smells
Rusty spring pops
Leap, bread.
Breathing again.
Burnt sandpaper
though soft smell.
Spoon in jelly
Blood red.
Sour grapes.
Break the surface
tear open the skin
Spread on.
Back of spoon
Be licked
Cringe nicely.
Remember Grandma
Taste her thoughts
as she sleeps.
